"...I\'m going to have to be forced to use Limit Break."

"Limit break? That thing you used against the demon in Geto?"

Hearing him talk about limit break, Eliza joined in on the conversation, her face darkening as she remembered the state Evan was in after he used it.

[The goddess \'Artemisia\' says that the thing that can avert the drawback of limit break is part of the rewards in the Lair of the Lizard Lord.]

\'For real?! Can I go there now?\'

[The goddess \'Artemisia\' says that the current you would die from a flick of the hidden boss\'s tail.

She states that only when you are at least level 200, would you stand a chance of survival. Against the tail flick, that is.]

"Then you should not have told me about it!"

Evan suddenly screamed out loud, startling Eliza and the lightning spirit sitting on her head.

"w-what\'s wrong?"

"Huh? Oh! Just that the thing I need to avoid the drawbacks of limit break is in another country. And it\'s impossible to go there, get it and come back before the Dullahans start messing up shit.

We\'re not even strong enough to take out the guard lizard."

"Guard lizard? Not guard dog?"

"Yep."

Evan replied to Eliza\'s questioning words with a straight face, making the battle priestess realize he was serious about there being a Guard Lizard.

While the blonde teenager was thinking about why someone would have a lizard stand guard for anything, Pride was asking more questions concerning the thing Evan wanted.

"How does this thing help you alleviate your skill\'s drawback?"

"To explain that, I have to explain how limit break works in the first place."

|Limit Break;

Type: Rare Active Skill

A skill to go over one\'s limits!

Effect;

It amplifies the user\'s power by three times their maximum values. The boosts may scale up depending on the opponent\'s level.

Restrictions;

Once used the user will be heavily fatigued. Using it for long periods of time will damage the user\'s body. |

Looking at the description of the skill, Evan felt that it didn\'t do it justice, especially in the restrictions part.

When Limit break is activated, the user experiences a power boost of three times their original, making them strong enough to take things that are three times as strong as them with ease.

"This then brings the question, where does the extra power come from?

The answer to that, is the reason for the drawbacks."

Limit break, upon activation, absorbed the ambient energies in the area around the caster or user and used it to multiply their power.

Let\'s have an example.

If the user\'s maximum power was quantified in units, summing up to 500 units.

Then what limit break would do, is to borrow 1000 more units and add these extra units on top of the user\'s original 500, giving them 1500 units, which is triple their original 500.

Of course, if the user was not at their maximum, and only had, let\'s say, 300 units left, then the sill would absurd 1200 units to make up for the difference.

The bottom line is that the skill always made sure the user was at three times their maximum power value.

"However, the energy required for his power boost has to be coming from somewhere, right? That somewhere, is the world itself."

The skill absorbed ambient energies from the surroundings and used said energy to multiply the user\'s power.

It bowered the amount of energy necessary to temporarily elevate the user\'s maximum energy levels, enhance their stats appropriately, and strengthen their body to be able to hold the increased power.

"But since it\'s being borrowed..."

"...it has to be paid back."

"Exactly."

Upon deactivating the skill, the reason for the use being \'heavily fatigued\', was because they were paying back the energies they had borrowed and consumed from the world.

When they regenerated their own energies, it was taken out of their body and sent back into the atmosphere to replace what they had borrowed and used.

If used for a short amount of time and did not use all that was borrowed, then the remaining would be returned and they would only have to pay back what they had used.

So, for a user with a maximum of 500, using limit break to borrow 1000 and get 1500, only to end up using only 300 out of the borrowed 1000, the remaining 700 would be and back and they only have to pay back the 300 used.

Once that is done, then the user is back to Prime condition.

That was the same for Limit break and its derivative that Evan really didn\'t want to use, Overload.

"The derivative is really an Overload, if I use that thing now, my body won\'t be able to handle the stress, even after being strengthened."

"Then you just have to be strong enough not to use it."

"Easier said than done, my dear Eliza."

Evan readjusted the doubler on his arm as he spoke, before tapping his other wrist where his broken watch was and continuing.

"The artifact that allows me to bypass that drawback, requires magic stones to work."

After using Limit break, the user could wear the artifact and consume magic stones to pay back the energy borrowed.

"Simply put, the artifact consumes magic stones to pay back the energy on my behalf, so I can regenerate my energy normally as I would after a fight.

It\'s quite tricky so I have to be wearing the artifact while using it. If I\'m not wearing it, it won\'t return the energy on my behalf and it would be a waste of magic stones.

But with it, all I have to deal with is the strain from absorbing too much power at once, which would be alleviated over time when I return to full strength.

Healing magic can also solve that too."

Evan walked up to his sword and picked it up as he concluded, before looking around and noticing the scattered magic stones on the floor.

"Help me out Kuro."

His shadow wiggled as a familiar black cat sped out of it, moving towards the magic stones as Evan turned his gaze back to Pride and Eliza.

"This artifact is indeed handy, but you say it\'s in another county?"
